on Signals by StarTravels

Always look forward to a new cosmic excursion with you two. Micky's vox are a perfect match for this, old school and contemporary at the same time. Like the double up delayed synth lines at 3 mins, is a cool effect, I did it on my blood moon track, messes with your head.

StarTravels replied 18th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

Hello Zootman,

thank you so much for listening and nice words, always appreciated.

Expansive sound, nice calming track but definitely holds the interest. A very good morning listen for me.

on lo que hicieron de mi by Ashesndreams

Good chunky guitar sound and great vox. I don't understand how a parent wouldn't accept their child for who they are. Seems crazy to me.

on Crossroad by CitizenMofo2

Dude this is just perfection all round. Vox are amazing, words intelligent. And the guitar work is totally compelling. Great mix and production to boot. Almost a while my guitar gently weeps vibe.

CitizenMofo2 replied 12th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

Thank you! It's so wonderful to hear that something you've done has caused enjoyment. I continue to wrestle with this group of songs and what I should do with them ultimately, so it's really helpful to get feedback like yours to think about (and I do).

on Night Rain - Ambient Lofi in C by pseudoble

I agree with all crucethus said. I listen to a bit of ambient it's a genre I love. This is beautiful. To me it is a little reminiscent of something Helios might have done.

pseudoble replied 9th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

Hey Chris - thanks mate

How you doing?- Im working on some stuff that is not going anywhere ... might email you and see if you have some ideas on how to rescue it .... just twisted part of it and made a new one as it is - but the old parts kind of okay

Speak Soon

on A Closing Scene by toastedavalanche

What a lovely surprise, this is so good. Wasn't expecting a song given the genre you tagged it as. Love the words and voice.

toastedavalanche replied 10th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

I was hesitant to label the song as cinematic for the very reason you point out. But as the title suggests, it was always cinematic in my head. I'm glad that it surprised you in a good way. And I thank you for your kind words.

on Window by monkwee

Contemplative and very good. I like this sorry of ambience. When I saw trance as the genre I was thinking electronica since that is most of what's on here. But yes this is trance inducing. Nice guitar tone.

monkwee replied 8th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

thanks man! i'm glad you got what i was going for with the trance thong lol, thanks for the listen and sharing your thoughts. much love!

beautiful mate, don't know what else to say, this makes me want to take flight. can't be bothered trying to analyse it and I'm not good at that anyway. all the best to you.

Gracias Chris, mi buen amigo, me agrada que te haya gustado el tema. Que tengas un buen día hermano. Paz y salud en el mundo, que buena falta nos hace.

on Cursed By Lilith by ClickbaitCabaret

consider me cursed. dark and savage. think i need to play this backwards and see what emerges lol. is that you on the guitar?

ClickbaitCabaret replied 6th Mar 2022 - 4 years ago

The guitar is the VST Evolution Strawberry running through Native Instruments Kontakt Player. I used to play guitar so mapping leads on a piano roll is easy for me to do. I'm a lot better at creating music than I am playing instruments. Thanks for listening & commenting. I appreciate it.

on Anywhere Out Of The World by ClickbaitCabaret

Mystical and mesmorizing and a little bit dangerous. I only know the dcd album toward the within, which may be atypical of their work. But still I do hear the dcd vibe of this.

ClickbaitCabaret replied 28th Feb 2022 - 4 years ago

It's on within the realm of a dying sun. Thank you for listening and commenting I appreciate it.

on Velvety by monkwee

Perfect for my headspace at this point in time:) I'm hearing almost slacker style, almost country. Liked the discordant guitars at the min mark whether or not it was intentional. Needs a vocal...!

monkwee replied 25th Feb 2022 - 4 years ago

Dude thank you! we are on the same wavelength then! Ive been modifying this track for the last 2 days and am working on a vocal track but im having a hard time! i was thinking about the velvet underground's mellower tracks but you're definitely hitting it on the head with the country/slacker feel! Cheers man thank you for the love and much love back to you!

on On The Wildside by Filaofsoul

got me with the bongo/congas rhythm straight off. lead synth is nuts and hooks up with the brass and keys really well. Not always easy coming up with something coherent using just loops, it's a different kind of skill I reckon but you nailed it again.

Filaofsoul replied 24th Feb 2022 - 4 years ago

Thanks for the stop by and listen and comments! Enjoyed putting this one together. Fila

on Traveling Lands Groovy Dance by EmmaniFreeze

Nice work man, has a playful feel to it and a nice gentle lightness. I really like your voice and words by the way, was checking out a bunch of your acapellas recently, very nearly tried one in the track I have up here at the moment.

I thought this was pretty enjoyable, as you say a mix of genres but I thought it worked well. Thought your guitar sounded great. percs coming in and out good too, maybe you added that after the comments.

Nice work man, loops or are you playing stuff? Either way some lovely classical guitar on this. Guess you're looking for a vocal, I imagine a sultry female voice on this.

You got twenty odd years and a whole bunch of talent on top of me! Great groove, keys and sax on fire over a solid bed of funky to goodness.

Filaofsoul replied 16th Feb 2022 - 4 years ago

Hey Zootman glad you enjoyed and Tks for stopping by and taking a listen. Sometimes I don't know where the next loop coming from but they seem to fall in place eventually. Just keep on dropping and moving. LOL Fila
